Last Wednesday I watched the sun rise and the moon set over the frozen fields. Our ground froze completely for the first time last Tuesday night after several nights of semi-frozen earth. The world was so frosted that it looked as though it had snowed (and I certainly hope that it will in coming days).Most of the trees have finally released the last of their leaves, with a few exceptions, and the evergreens are taking center stage. Tomorrow I’ll show you how great those evergreens look in morning sunlight!

Michelle, thanks! Frost is such an amazing creature... as you say, it has truly transformative powers! Thanks for sending us snowy wishes... I would love a serious snowstorm! (I just can't believe what I've missed in Washington State.)
